LSS STEAM Freedom School

Freedom School

Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota (LSS) is hosting the LSS STEAM Freedom School© in North Minneapolis again this summer through a partnership with Children's Defense Fund (CDF). Children will have the opportunity to participate in free summer programming that builds academic skills through high-quality STEM education and summer reading activities. We have many exciting opportunities available within our school. From registering your child in Freedom School © programming to applying for one of our summer job postings, there are many ways to join the Freedom School © movement! 

To learn more, visit the Children’s Defense Fund Freedom Schools © website. You can also check out this video made featuring some of our Freedom School scholars as they talk about the powering potential of our service.
